to make a long story short, i work at a petco " i know BOOOOOOOO" ok thats over with. but honestly i'm the animal person there and i'm the one taking care of all of them.
today while stocking stuff on the shelf i seen this ball python on the floor no biggie my manager said to keep it so i took it home. well she was in really bad health when she came into the store ticks mites. u name it. well i was taking care of her in the infirm. someone put her back on the sales floor, she got ut of the tank. i asked about her and they said she died. well today my friend tom came up to visit me and we seen it sitting on the floor he almost stepped on it. so we got him home inspected him got olive oil to remove ticks and mites heard it was a good way to do it got a majority of the ticks off and the mites weren't to bad. so we have the snake in qurentine from all the other animals. we put her in the tub that got rid of alot of mite but i wanted to know if there was anything else to do besides soaking.
also looks like she has scale rot i know neosporian will work. and she was real dehydrated she drank when she went swimming. i think we are gonna start her on pinkies shes 60 grams we wieghted her today.
so wish me luck and please i need some advice.
